Variation
For a treat, try slicing the very top of the potato off rather than slicing it in two, forming a ‘lid’. Scoop out the fluffy contents of the potato, keeping the skin intact. Mix the potato in a bowl with butter, grated cheese and black pepper, then spoon the mixture back into the skin. Replace the lid and serve.
